April CopyNight in DC

Last night's CopyNight was back at RFD. Us regulars were all there, in addition to some new people, last month's hosts from Public Knowledge and the guests of honor from The Future of Music Coalition. The conversation stayed well on point about the the future of the music business. Of course, we did go off on a few occasional, yet interesting, tangents.

It was a good experience. I am looking forward to CopyNight in May in hopes that the momentum continues building. I also hope that something comes from these gatherings of minds on a particular topic. I don't dare to guess what that might be for us.

CopyNight in DC

I haven't mentioned in my blog yet that I have relocated from Pittsburgh to DC. I have regularly attended CopyNight in DC. Although I am not hosting, I still contribute a lot and love it just as much. Last month was at Public Knowledge's headquarters and tonight we are back to the bar with some members of The Future of Music Coalition. I will blog with afterthoughts.

Posting again: a blog entry about blogging

I have wanted to post again for a while. But I haven't. And at this point I am pretty sure none of the ten people who used to read my blog, still do.

So, I write to the empty internet space.

It is the internet space itself that intimidates me to my core. How do I compete with something so expansive, looming and now more technically savvy then I could hope to be?

Ok, so then losing aside and read by no one, I am back to blog.

All this time away I thought often about what to blog and where this blog should go as a whole. Do I want a theme? Do I want a niche? Do I want to pretend I am an expert in some area?

Clearly, I got nowhere. And for some reason today I am at least writing something. It is content. And some say that is the most important thing. Here is some content. A blog post about my blog in general. To no one. With no significant competitive value. And with no purpose. I think you are getting the idea now.

And the follow up post? I have no idea. But I am determined to keep posting til this blog again has a life of its own.
